Author
Cooke, J. Robert; Sobel, E. Ted
Abstract
Electronic publishing is now feasible using QuickTime movies with DocuView™ (DV).
QuickTime (QT) was designed to provide animation capability for the Macintosh. With the
current hardware limitations the image size must be limited to small sizes to achieve acceptable
frame display rates. However, if display rate is not critical, much larger images can be
displayed1. Furthermore, QT images are basically bit-mapped graphics that support color. Of
course, QT can include all fonts associated with different languages and special symbols such as
occur in mathematics and chemistry, which the 72 dots per inch resolution of the Macintosh
screen represents satisfactorily. QT images can originate as bit-mapped graphics, or you can
transform them into a particular format by a scanner , by conversion word processor, or other
documents. After converting the documents into this format, you can transmit them via
computer network and then display them using DocuView.
